The mouse connected when malfunctions occurred is a Microsoft Wheel
Mouse Optical USB and PS/2 Compatible, P/N X802382-018.

The mouse currently under test is a Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical USB
and PS/2 Compatible, P/N X05-87477.  So for, there have been very few
malfunctions.


Both connect through an IOGEAR MiniView 8 port PS/2 KVM switch GCS78,
which has known EDID (VGA) problems with Debian.


The next time I am using my laptop stand-alone, I will do more mouse
testing.

Lately, I have noticed that mouse clicks (e.g. left button, one click)
are getting lost.  Sometimes I have to click multiple times, especially
when the CPU is loaded.  Right-clicks and center-clicks might be getting
lost, also.


How do I troubleshoot this?
